There is no reason the BOINC engine would slow down prime95 code. It could be a significant project to tie in BIONC clients and servers to the current system tho. If it takes months of coding and testing to get some 500-600 new contributors, I wouldnt think it was worth it. -- VE6LFM Terminal insomniac _______________________________________________ Prime mailing list [email protected] http://hogranch.com/mailman/listinfo/prime
